With regard to your ancestor Maria Duclos, I show a great grand aunt, Maria Anne Duclos, born 9/2/1821 in Kaltenhausen, Alsace, France. Her name appears in a biography of Mathias Duclos found transcribed from "Portrait and Biographical Album, Fayette County Iowa" , Chicago: Lake City Publishing Co., 1891 by Charmaine Cremeen Keith, and posted to the Internet on 4/27/2001. This account gives place of birth as Franklin County, Indiana.
Her father, Mathias (1795-1847) died in Franklin County. Her mother, Marie-Anne Roehry (1798-1852), died in Cincinnati, Ohio. Several of Mathias's children moved to Iowa.
An undated inquiry on the Ancestry.com message boards from Kathy Nourse reads "Mathias Duclos died August 26, 1848 in Ray Township, Franklin County, IN. I'm looking for information on his family, wife Marie Anna, son Louis and any other children."
If this is the same person you are looking for, I have quite a bit of info on her ancestors, but nothing on her husband or children. Please feel free to contact me at my e-mail address and maybe we can help each other.
